It is generally considered an easy hiking/nature walk route; however, there are some steep climbs and descents on a mountain bike, and it is chocked full of community-built berms, dirt jumps, and rock/root gardens. It is popular for hiking, mountain biking, and trail running, but you can still enjoy solitude during quieter times.
